Hi Briony and welcome to the forum,
within this website is this searchable Register of Freeminers which would be a good start, hopefully your dad's ancestor will be listed.
http://www.forest-of-dean.net/index.php/resources/register-of-freeminers

For your dad's visit to the Forest the best start would be the Dean Heritage Museum
http://www.deanheritagecentre.com/museum/deanheritagemuseum.htm

If you can give us more details of your ancestors then we may possibly be able to help more, altho of course we're short of time. Has your dad searched this Forum & the rest of the site yet, he may find other people have already done some of his research for him.

Best of luck, hope your dad enjoys his visit.
